Two rounds down on my own course and very probably no points this week, played sh%$ putted sh%$. No bogie’s though -9, -8 for -17 Finished ahead of you for once Les. Rare achievement for me this season. And on your own course!! Found it an enjoyable and relaxing place to play. Like the way you slotted in your (fictional) lighthouse!!

Just finished my 2 rounds on your nice home course, Les.
R1 -14
I played really well for a bogey free round and was dropping putts and chip shots in the cup from everywhere.
R2 -7 The course played tougher with the high winds. I still managed to make some putts but finished off with a bogey on the 18th.

Like a perfectly matched pair of Purdey shotguns I managed -12 on both rounds to complete the week -24 and an acceptable distance behind the big beasts of the PS4 class.

As I'm in the process of putting some hundreds stones on top of other stones, I would like to apply to the Honourable Society of Gentlemen Putting Things on Top of Other Things. Is there a member who can sponsor me ?

Les always plays his course designs down as more for his own use than serious contenders but I note the two courses we have featured have been very well received.

SkyBlueBen these are for your attention letting you see how progress on Silloth is going. Les, this looks really good. Definitely going to give it a play when you're done. I always enjoy playing your courses.

I’m thinking i need to shape the fairways and maybe make them a little thinner for playability it won’t change the course to much. I’m also thinking of adding a couple of extra long tees but what do you guys think. Do you want the genuine course or can I add to it for playability in the game.

For me sometimes you have to err on the side of playability.
